160 Chapter 160: Baby Alex Sudden Growth

“Alex, it looks like you need a new outfit.” Reed looked at his dad. “Let me just change Alex’s diaper and clothes.”

Eldron gave the nod and sat down on the couch. Becky went up to Eldron.

Reed put Alex down carefully on the bed and took off his clothes and diapers to get a cloth diaper for himself. Reed left Alex in less than ten seconds. When Reed saw a child sitting on the bed, it surprised him. He looked around, then made a sad face. Later, the boy moved and almost fell on the bed. Luckily, he was able to let out black smoke, which made the boy fall there. Reed quickly waved his hand and sent the smoke flying toward him. He looked at the child.

“Dad!”

Reed’s eyes got widened. The diaper he was carrying fell to the ground, and he picked it up immediately.

He asked, “Alex?”

“Dad!”

“I’m so sorry, Jasmin,” she said.

.....

Emy almost didn’t say anything, but she did apologize for what had happened. Even though her wound wasn’t that bad, she said she wasn’t scared by what Alex did.

“No, Miss Emy, I’m fine,” Jasmin said. “I still care about little Alex.”

“Jasmin, you should be more careful. Alex is still young and doesn’t know what he’s doing. Avery told me.

“I understand. I apologize. I still worry about you,” Jasmin told her.

Later, when someone knocked on the door, and it suddenly opened, they turned to look. It spits out Reed, the former king Eldron, Beck, and a soldier who worked for Eldron. And they looked at the boy who was with them. They think that the child is at most a year old.

“Mommy!”

The eyes of the three women got bigger. Emy gave Reed a quick look.

“Don’t look at me like that. Even I was shocked by what happened.”

Reed let the boy go because he was about to lose it. Alex started to walk when Reed set him down, which surprised everyone, including Reed.

“Mommy!”

Emy couldn’t hide her surprise and happiness. She didn’t know how a baby only a few days old could already walk and call her name. She opened her arms and waited for Alex to get to her. Alex fell a few more times, but he got up and kept walking.

Alex got to Emy after a while. “Mommy!” Emy gave the child a hug, which made the child happy.

“You’re so big, Alex! Wow,” Jasmin said.

“Auntie...”

What Alex said out of the blue surprised Jasmin. She gave Reed and Emy a quick look.

“Auntie!”

Alex put his hand on hers and asked Jasmin to take her. Everyone had their eyes on Jasmin. Jasmin smiled and jumped off the bed to talk to Alex immediately. When she got close to Alex, she swallowed because even at that age, the boy was handsome. She’s also worried that what happened before could happen again. After taking a deep breath, Jasmin picked up Alex. What the baby did make her very happy.

Jasmin and Alex look fine. They watched Jasmin and Alex from far away. Reed, Eldron, and Devin can’t tell Emy what happened, nor can Reed.

“I won’t be surprised if Alex is a teenager and dating Jasmin tomorrow,” Devin said.

“That’s not funny at all.” She told Devin. Even Jasmin and Alex turned to look at Emy. “I can’t even enjoy changing his diapers with him, and my body hasn’t even fully healed yet. He’ll have a girlfriend, right? He’s stupid.”

Devin gave his head a scratch. “Jeez, Emy, you’re taking things too seriously. I’m joking.”

Emy was speechless for a second. “Since no one knows why Alex grew up so quickly, you don’t have to take everything seriously,” Devin said.

Emy didn’t say anything. She went straight to Alex and took it from Jasmin. Jazmin was curious about what Emy did.

“I’ll just want to rest with Alex.” Emy said, “I’m going up the stairs,” She quickly turned her back on everyone and went up.

Everyone watched as he ran down the stairs quickly. Reed took a deep breath and put his hand on his head.

“Why can’t someone tell me what happened?” Reed inquired.

“Mages are possible...” Eldron said.

“Uncle, we will never be able to forgive them in this life,” Devin said.

Eldron said, “You have to cross the realm.”

“But if Dynhir finds out, it will cause a new mess when that happens,” Devin said.

“That man doesn’t matter to me,” Reed said.

“Calm down, Reed, you’re too hot,” Devin said.

“Sir Reed, you can’t leave Miss Emy. She seems unhappy about what’s happening, even though she’s just a baby. She might be going through the postpartum period right now.” Avery told me.

“Postpartum?” Reed inquired. Reed, Devin, Eldron, Becky, and the soldier who worked for Eldron all looked at Avery. Avery inhaled deeply. He had to tell them what period he was talking about.

“The postpartum or postnatal period starts about 6 weeks after the baby is born, when the mother’s body, including her hormone levels and the size of her uterus, goes back to how it was before she was pregnant. Her feelings are also messed up here, so most babies don’t get it. Women who have just given birth often get depressed because no one understands them, and they feel alone.” Avery told us.

“He really means a lot to me, and since Avery and I don’t have kids yet, we can’t even tell you what postpartum is,” Jasmin said.

Eldron inhaled deeply. “Being a person is hard. It’s a good thing I’m a demon.”

Avery and Jasmin gave Eldron a quick glance. They were curious to know if what the old man said would make them laugh or not.

“Is that dangerous after giving birth?” Reed inquired.

Avery nodded. “If you can take care of your husband, you’ll understand him like you do now. He must be confused, afraid, and sad all at once.”

“Sir, you also have a problem because your dad can’t see him. Alex, when he sees Alex, he will be shocked.” Jasmin said.

“It looks like I know what’s happening with you here. You have more trouble in this realm than in ours.” Eldron said.

“It’s the same uncle because I’m sure this event will reach the realm, and the demons will attack. Dynhir will be in charge.” Devin said.

“Dynhir?” Eldron asked.

“Of course, Uncle. Our elites will be killed by Dynhir’s lack of fear.” Devin said.

“Then I’ll kill him right away...” Reed said something, but before Reed could move, both of his arms were grabbed by Eldron and Devin. Reed’s eyebrows went up.

“Okay, what do you say?” They dropped Reed’s arm.

“Reed, think first,” Eldron said.

Reed looked over at Devin. “Well, I just found you, but I’m not going to stop you.”

Avery and Jasmin didn’t say anything.

At the same time, Emy was holding Alex, sound asleep in her arms. She was holding her breath and staring at her son.

‘I’m not used to being a mother yet, Alex. I still want to experience when I can’t sleep well because I’m constantly changing your diapers and feeding you all night. Why are you growing up so fast? Maybe tomorrow... maybe tomorrow....’

When Emy thought about that, she couldn’t help but cry. She’s also worried about what her doctor and Alex’s doctor will say. What about Alex’s medical record? He got shots to help him grow up healthy.

She carefully put Alex on the bed. She stood still and looked at Alex. When someone put their hand on Emy’s shoulder, she was surprised.

“My queen...”

Reed was surprised when Emy hugged him as soon as she looked at him. Emy was crying as she put her face in his chest. He touched the back of his wife.

“Have no fear, my queen. Our questions will be answered. You need to calm down and stop overthinking for now. We’ll both figure it out.” Reed said as he put both of his arms around Emy.

Emy didn’t say anything and just cried.

Avery and Jasmin were in the kitchen drinking coffee together. Devin stood near the door and looked at the two women. When Avery held his katana, Devin laughed.

“Jeez, Avery, the more time passes, the scarier it gets,” Devin said, laughing.

“Why would you be afraid, Sir Devin? It doesn’t make sense.”

Devin was happy. He walked over to the other side of the table and sat down.

“Jasmin, what happened before? “Why did Alex try to hurt you?” Devin asked.

The two of them looked at each other. “Come on, spill the beans. It will also help to understand how everything began.” Devin said. “Alex’s growth may have something to do with drinking Jasmin’s blood, isn’t it?”

“Well, Alex used to power and hurt Jasmin. After that, he must have been attracted to the blood.” – Avery.

“And that was where it all started...” Devin said.

“Yeah, that pretty well sums it up,” Jasmin said.

“Why is that so? Why does Alex seem so hungry for blood? Could he be a vampire?”

Avery and Jasmin both looked at Devin.
